I am the shelter manager of Hampton County Animal Shelter. I have been employed since 2013 and volunteered even before. I have always been involved with animals and chose to take a position at the shelter so that my love for animals could help on a higher level than just a pet owner.
Potential adopters must fill out an adoption application and it must be approved by our staff before any animals are adopted out. All animals will be spayed/neutered upon or before adoption finalization. We do encourage potential adopters to do a 10-day foster trial before adoption to ensure the pet is the right fit for their home.
When the application is approved we schedule an appointment to come in and meet the animals and we also like to have a "meet and greet" with any other animals in the home that may be in contact with the adoptee.
